When I was growing up in the 1960’s and 70’s a statement like this was inconceivable, and a vast majority of Israelis would have celebrated it. And now, here it is (and has been for years). Are there risks? Of course. But that’s what leaders are for.
Let’s get a few things straight;
- I’m a criminal defence lawyer. Allegations of crimes need to be proven. Show me a real lawyer who says otherwise.
- She signed a letter calling for a ceasefire.
- The letter doesn’t “deny rape” - it says politicians shouldn’t parrot the IDF
Dany Assaf’s new book “Say Please and Thank You & Stand In Line” is a true love letter to diversity in Canada and the power of community.
I’m proud to call @danyassaf a friend and encourage Torontonians to read about his remarkable story.
My heart goes out to the loved ones of Mohamed-Aslim Zafis. The reports that his murder was motivated by Neo-Nazism and Islamophobia are extremely concerning. We stand with Muslim communities against such hatred, which has no place in Canada. We are with you.
I and everyone identifying as Muslim is required to publicly condemn such acts. Deranged manifestations of individuals have become our burden and the same must be for our police services. It is an inevitability, How many more must die. How long must we wait.
I am a spokesperson for the Muslim community in Edmonton, Canada. When any outrageous, evil act(believe me the media has no hesitation regarding terror acts committed by Muslims to describe them as evil, and is appropriate language when cold and calculated),
As an activist I am continually reminded that until people from within a group or system protest against the deplorable actions of individuals or the systemically misguided culture of their organizations there is no chance for change.
When will we see police officers protest the murder of #GeorgeFloyd “Not in my name.”
Cops need to condemn one of their own on mass. And it needs to be done now.
GeorgeFloyd’s murder was an act of evil, full stop.
This is about the injustice and evil visited upon the black community in America; I do not wish to distract with the comments below but rather illuminate a standard proscribed upon a community when any individual from within a ratialized community commits a crime.
